m-Endo LES Agar 20mL Monoplate, 10/Pk

m-Endo LES Agar, 20mL Monoplate, 10/Pk is a selective and differential culture medium designed for the detection and enumeration of coliform bacteria, particularly Escherichia coli, in water samples using the membrane filtration method. Its formulation, based on lactose fermentation and the presence of sodium lauryl sulfate and sodium deoxycholate, inhibits Gram-positive bacteria while allowing coliforms to produce characteristic red colonies with a metallic sheen.

Each plate is pre-poured with 20mL of sterile medium in a standard 100 x 15mm monoplate format, optimized for even membrane placement and incubation. This medium is widely used in drinking water testing, wastewater analysis, and environmental monitoring, and complies with EPA, APHA, and Standard Methods protocols.

• 20mL fill in standard 100 x 15mm monoplate format
• Selective for Gram-negative, lactose-fermenting coliforms
• Metallic sheen colony morphology enables easy identification of E. coli
• Compatible with membrane filtration workflows
• Supplied sterile in 10-pack for routine water quality testing

m-Endo LES Agar provides accurate and efficient detection of waterborne coliforms and is a trusted tool in regulated microbiology laboratories.
